Origin Notes and History:
"Yale Land District" is an incomplete descriptor, but appears in many datasets. The entire area between Kootenay, Cariboo, Lillooet and New Westminster Land Districts - loosely called "Yale Land District" - is parsed into four (4) Divisions, each treated as a discrete Land District for Land Title purposes: Kamloops Division Yale Land District; Osoyoos Division Yale Land District; Similkameen Division Yale Land District; and Yale Division Yale Land District.
